Cue Editor Overview
{% endembed %}

## Description

The Cue Editor module facilitates the creation of Cues. Cues are pre-recorded series of actions and parameter modifications set in a specific order of execution. This sequence of actions can be affected by variables such as delays, timings and target values. In other words, any parameter, slider, toggle or dropdown menu found in PHOTON’s UI can be affected by a Cue.
